Summary
When Worlds Collide - Part One: Kindred Spirits
The issue starts with Sonic and Mega Man in the middle of a heated battle at Green Hill Zone. Meanwhile Doctors Eggman and Wily watch the battle via video feed provided by Tails Man. Eggman and Wily make a toast to an unknown plan that seems to involve the Chaos Emeralds. The setting then shifts to weeks ago at Doctor Wily's base where one of his robots shows him a Chaos Emerald that Wily then anylises. Wily then puts the Chaos Emerald into a device, which then sparks, and the comic switches over to Dr. Eggman preparing to make a rant to his D.E.L. grandmasters, when he's interrupted by Dr.Wily popping up on his holo-screen. They both argue about who each of them are, then Dr. Wily says he's the greatest mind on Earth, which after hearing this makes Eggman wonder what year it is in Wily's dimension, which Wily replies it's 20XX. Soon after, they both see that they have much in common. The two of them visit each other in a zone that they created with chaos energy. After some bickering, they decide to call it the Skull Egg Zone. Soon they build a combined forces "Death Egg", known as the Wily Egg. They activate the Genesis Wave and reset each others zones. Soon it shows Tails packing, and he sees a shadow near his door, thinking it's Sonic, he opens the door to see Bass and Metal Sonic, who knocks him out and brings Tails to Drs. Wily and Eggman. They explain how they are going to combine Wily's robotics with Eggman's roboticization process, to create an army of robot masters. the process turns Tails into a Roboticized Master, known as Tails Man. They then agree on turning more of Sonic's friends into Roboticized Masters. Then it flashes to Mega Man's city to Proto Man. Who hears a shriek, and notices police going to the First National Bank. He then reaches the bank to see the robbers, and notices their technology seems alien. He asks them who they are, and then it pans out to show Tails Man, Knuckles Man, Shadow Man, and Rose Woman, and Tails Man says they are the Roboticized Masters, and that they are his destruction.
